Nebraska Softball: Bahl, Meylan Highlight Season-Opener Starting Lineups

The matchup between Nebraska and Washington features eight Nebraska natives.

Two All-Americans from Omaha are set to duel on the beach Thursday evening in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, to open the 2024 season.

Jordy Bahl in her first season with the Huskers and Ruby Meylan in her sophomore campaign with the Washington Huskies are taking center stage on college softball opening day.

Bahl, a graduate of Papillion-La Vista, and Meylan, who graduated from Skutt Catholic, bring multiple high school state titles and a club national championship that they won together to this season's highly anticipated matchup.
